Imbros gorge tour Rethymnon 2023

Imbros gorge tour Rethymnon (from Rethymnon), starts at 07:00 from Bali and arrives at the entrance of the gorge at 09:00. You start hiking the gorge after you pay the 2,5 € entrance fee.

Imbros gorge is much easier than Samaria. Hiking lasts 2 to 3 hours and can be easily walked by children as well! Most of the hiking is under shade and the gorge is open all year round! That means gorge hiking lovers can walk Imbros gorge when Samaria is closed (end of October up to early May).

The Cretan landscape is amazing combining beautiful beaches, gorges, wild sceneries, mountains, and old villages. The Sfakia area is one of the wildest parts of Crete and because of the uniqueness of the landscape, it was never easily accessed by the enemy (Turks, German army e.t.c.). This alone is a reason to visit the gorge and Chora Sfakion village by the sea! The route to Chora Sfakion gives a breathtaking view! Another reason is to taste the traditional delicacies like the sfakian pie!

South Crete is different from the north and you cannot have a whole picture of the island if you do not go to the magical Cretan south!

As in all our tours, we offer the Imbros gorge tour Rethymnon at the best price in addition to excellent service!
